g}sszsallt7ia Gazetts,
- w '''''''

The GAZETTE is now the oldest paper In
the State, and with few exceptions the old.
est in the country, and its usefulness has
been demonstrated and appreciated during
the EIGHTY SEVEN YEARS OF its existence. In
its columns has always been found mirror
of passing events, and the careful chrOni.
cling of the history of what is going on in the
world has ever been its aim. 1t is always
welcomed in the household, while in lbs
counting room and workshop it has become
invaluable.
The GAZETTE has better facilities for Oh.
tanning news than any paper outside of The
national capital. Situated as it is SO close
to the great centre of news, it enjoys daily
the benefit of the Associated Press di.
patches from every part of the world hence
its patrons can read from its columns in The
evening what has transpired that day 10
every portion of our own domain as well as
from every part of the habitabIe globe
Consequently it is an every day occurrence
for the GAZETTE 10 publish kilograms from
the various European capitals twelve and
fifteen hours earlier than the morning pa.
pers.
Another feature that serves to make tho
GAZETTE great desideratum with mer
chants is its afternoon market reports iroIn
New York, Baltimore, Chicago and other
centres.
The local department furnishes full and
complete history of everything that occurs
n and near the city, and this feature will
as ever, receive careful attention
Correspondence from Washington, Rich
mond and every section of the State, is pub.
lished regularly, and all ovents of interest
occurring within the bounds of the Com
monweath are TO lie found in the columns
of the GAZETTE.
The GAzETrE'S circulation is steadily in
creasing, especially among people who CON
suit its advertising columns before purchas
ing. That this is selfevident may be infer
red from the fact that large country edl'
as large as the daily--is sent
all over this section of country three tines
A week, and is read by thousands, most OF
whom send here or to contiguous cities to
make purchases. The advantages Of ad'
'ertisiug 10 the GAZETTE are, therefore, APP
parent.

which has the merit of truth. 1 was coming
back from Jersey City. The ferry boat was
about to enter the slip, when man near the
forward door Of the smoking cabin got up
and said:

yez. I've got wife and three children home
to-day, starving I'll grub for a living, do
anything an honest man can, but want We
TO help me now to tide me over the night"

down; we've heard that before" The man
kept his feet and faced the crowd as it poured
through the door, There was nothing of the
professional beggar about him, he looked like
what he undoubtedly waS-a striking coal

man take down the fellows name and address
and offer him work; then the beggar was left
alone in the cabin. / knew the world ard
was suspicious went back and looked into
the cabin window, expecting to see the

preparing for raid on the next boat load.
The poor fellow was down on his knees before

At the age of three months a rash made
its appearance on my face. A physician

He professed to know all about the case,
called il "King's Evil" and prescribed
gunpowder, birthstone and lard mixed
into a salve, but the disease continued.
They could not do anything with 1t. An
other prescribed borax water and flour;
another, linseed poultices. None OF them
did me any good at all, but made me
worse. The disease continued unaDated;
